Pigeon is an inclusive name for birds of the family Columbidae, a cosmopolitan group with about 300 species. Generally, larger species are called pigeons and smaller ones are known as doves, although there is no technical distinction.
Pigeons are often quite social, with some species breeding colonially and others simply congregating in flocks during the nonbreeding seasons. The diets of pigeons consist mainly of vegetable substances such as fruits, seeds, and berries. The muscular gizzard of the pigeon is usually well developed, and many species add small invertebrate animals, such as snails, to their diets. Pigeons are among the few groups of birds in the world that drink directly, by immersing the bill and sucking. |

Hi Tjasa,
You caught this pigeon very nicely. You even got the shimmering neck. The eye is amazing. Good details and POV.
The DOF is good , the birds stand out very good from the BG.
Very well done.
